Dealing with change

As a speaker, Joyce is an authority on agility and resilience in times of change. She shares her wonderful life story with her best personal insights combined with the psychology of change.

At sixteen, Joyce received a diagnosis that dramatically changed her future prospects: "you become deaf and blind." Slowly she loses her two senses that allow her to communicate and function independently. She lives in a continuous process of change with the choice: how do I deal with this? Despite everything, Joyce sees the world positively, because as she says herself, "I don't need to be able to see to have a vision AND I don't need to be able to hear to be heard."

Change comes our way for all of us and makes enormous demands on our personal agility.
Do you choose to be guided by fear and want to hold on to the old familiar? Or do you see moments of change as an opportunity to learn from and grow?
In short: how agile are you?

As a speaker, Joyce is an authority on agility and resilience in times of change. She shares her wonderful life story with her best personal insights combined with the psychology of change.

Joyce puts down a super strong content story. I've seen more people do that, but the way she does it is unique. So powerful in her vulnerability. So connecting with her audience from her own experience. After her presentation I spoke to several tough colleagues who had to admit that they listened with a lump in their throat.
